the capture of 19 ye-year-old dzhokhar tsarnaev. today the white house made it very clear he will not be tried as an enemy combatant. it's a controversial movement i spoke earlier with john ashcroft, former attorney general to the bush administration, about it. attorney general ashcroft, thanks so much for joining us today. if you were attorney general right now, would you be recommending that dzhokhar tsarnaev be tried as an enemy combatant, or are criminal courts also okay with you? >> yes. the answer to that question is yes. fortunately, there is a mountain of evidence that would support either a state charge or a federal charge in the article iii courts, meaning the traditional criminal jurisdiction courts, and the evidence is so substantial that it probably doesn't matter whether or not anything he would say now to interrogators would be used against him. he's already -- the focus of so much hard evidence that the business about miranda warnings is probably a tempest in a teapot here. >> you were attorney general from 2001 thro
